This patch (as1206) is the first step in converting usb-storage's
subdrivers into separate modules. It makes the following large-scale
changes:Remove a bunch of unnecessary #ifdef's from usb_usual.h.
Not truly necessary, but it does clean things up.Move the USB device-ID table (which is duplicated between
libusual and usb-storage) into its own source file,
usual-tables.c, and arrange for this to be linked with
either libusual or usb-storage according to whether
USB_LIBUSUAL is configured.Add to usual-tables.c a new usb_usual_ignore_device()
function to detect whether a particular device needs to be
managed by a subdriver and not by the standard handlers
in usb-storage.Export a whole bunch of functions in usb-storage, renaming
some of them because their names don't already begin with
"usb_stor_". These functions will be needed by the new
subdriver modules.Split usb-storage's probe routine into two functions.
The subdrivers will call the probe1 routine, then fill in
their transport and protocol settings, and then call the
probe2 routine.Take the default cases and error checking out of
get_transport() and get_protocol(), which run during
probe1, and instead put a check for invalid transport
or protocol values into the probe2 function.Add a new probe routine to be used for standard devices,
i.e., those that don't need a subdriver. This new routine
checks whether the device should be ignored (because it
should be handled by ub or by a subdriver), and if not,
calls the probe1 and probe2 functions.Signed-off-by: Alan Stern

This patch (as1189b) adds some hacks to usb-storage for dealing with
the growing problems involving bad capacity values and last-sector
accesses:A new flag, US_FL_CAPACITY_OK, is created to indicate that
the device is known to report its capacity correctly. An
unusual_devs entry for Linux's own File-backed Storage Gadget
is added with this flag set, since g_file_storage always
reports the correct capacity and since the capacity need
not be even (it is determined by the size of the backing
file).An entry in unusual_devs.h which has only the CAPACITY_OK
flag set shouldn't prejudice libusual, since the device will
work perfectly well with either usb-storage or ub. So a
new macro, COMPLIANT_DEV, is added to let libusual know
about these entries.When a last-sector access succeeds and the total number of
sectors is odd (the unexpected case, in which guessing that
the number is even might cause trouble), a WARN is triggered.
The kerneloops.org project will collect these warnings,
allowing us to add CAPACITY_OK flags for the devices in
question before implementing the default-to-even heuristic.
If users want to prevent the stack dump produced by the WARN,
they can disable the hack by adding an unusual_devs entry
for their device with the CAPACITY_OK flag.When a last-sector access fails three times in a row and
neither the FIX_CAPACITY nor the CAPACITY_OK flag is set,
we assume the last-sector bug is present. We replace the
existing status and sense data with values that will cause
the SCSI core to fail the access immediately rather than
retry indefinitely. This should fix the difficulties
people have been having with Nokia phones.Signed-off-by: Alan Stern

Add the SANE SENSE flag to indicate that a device is capable of handling
more than 18-bytes of sense data. This functionality is required for
USB-ATA bridges implementing SAT. A future patch will actually enable this
function for several devices.The logic behind this is that we can detect support for SANE_SENSE in a few ways:
1) ATA PASS THROUGH (12) or (16) execute successfully
2) SPC-3 or higher is in use
3) A previous CHECK CONDITION occurred with sense format 70-73 and had
a length greater than 18-bytes totalSigned-off-by: Ben Efros

I have got a cypress usb-ide bridge and I would like to tune or monitor
my disk with tools like hdparm, hddtemp or smartctl.My controller support a way to send raw ATA command to the disk with
something call atacb (see
http://download.cypress.com.edgesuite.net/design_resources/datasheets/contents/cy7c68300c_8.pdf).Atacb support can be added for each application, but there is some disadvantages :
- all application need to be patched
- A race is possible if there other accesses, because the emulation can
be split in 2 atacb scsi transactions. One for sending the command, one
for reading the register (if ck_cond is set).I have implemented the emulation in usb-storage with a special proto_handler,
and an unsual entry.Signed-off-by: Matthieu CASTET

Motorola ROKR Z6 cellphone has bugs in its USB, so it is impossible to use
it as mass storage. Patch describes new "unusual" USB device for it with
FIX_INQUIRY and FIX_CAPACITY flags and new BULK_IGNORE_TAG flag.
Last flag relaxes check for equality of bcs->Tag and us->tag in
usb_stor_Bulk_transport routine.Signed-off-by: Constantin Baranov

This patch (as1011) adds a #define for the newly-created Lockable
(i.e., password-protected) subclass 0x07 for USB mass-storage devices.
The private ISD200 entry (which had been mapped to subclass 0x07) is
moved to 0xf0, which is unlikely to conflict with any official
subclass designation.The US_SC_MIN and US_SC_MAX constants aren't used anywhere, so the
patch removes them.Signed-off-by: Alan Stern

When a device cannot handle the smallest previously limited transfer
size (64 blocks) without stalling, limit the device to the amount of
packets that fit in a platform native page.The lowest possible limit is PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, so if the device is ever
used on a platform that has larger than 8K pages, you lose unless you
can convince the device firmware folks to fix the issue.Cc: Mathew Dharm

there's a USB mass storage device which exists in two version. One
reports the correct size and the other does not. Apart from that they
are identical and cannot be told apart. Here's a heuristic based on the
empirical finding that drives have even sizes.Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum

This patch adds a new unusual_devs flag for when usb-storage needs to ignore
a device that it would otherwise claim.We need to ignore the ZyXEL G220F as it is a virtual CDROM drive which
includes the windows driver for this USB-WLAN adapter. After the windows
driver is installed on a windows system, it converts it into a WLAN adapter
(by ejecting the virtual disc).The virtual CDROM is of no interest to Linux users. The zd1211rw driver will
automatically perform the eject operation, we just need to ensure that
usb-storage does not claim the device.Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake

This patch adds another usb-storage subdriver, which supports two fairly
old dual-XD/SmartMedia reader-writers (USB1.1 devices).This driver was written by Daniel Drake -- he notes
that he wrote this driver without specs, however a vendor-supplied GPL
driver for the previous generation of products ("sma03") did prove to be
quite useful, as did the sddr09 driver which also has to deal with
low-level physical block layout on SmartMedia.The original patch has been reformed by me, as it clashed with the
libusual patches.We really need to consolidate some of this common SmartMedia code, and
get together with the MTD guys to share it with them as well.Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake
